The King of Knights in a Different World

"What about the French's landing operations? Is there such a possibility? The reason why they stopped the frontline offensive in the south is to attract our troops, and then landed unexpectedly from the west to launch a surprise attack on us." Lucifer said There is a strategic possibility.

His words instantly changed the faces of the dukes, as if they had never thought of this possibility before. Now that I think about it, it's not impossible. No, it should be said that it is quite feasible.

"Hey, I'm starting to feel a little thankful that you are our king. For now, there is no news about this. I will order my fleet to strengthen its coastal defenses. However, the French navy has always been weak. If we are on guard, They can't help it." Semiramis was the first to react, and she made a promise.

Since there is no problem in the west for the time being, Lucifer can calmly consider the other three lines for the time being.

"Okay! Since you said so, I will believe it. The west is safe for the time being, which means that we are currently facing a third-front battle. If the north, Gominiad, I need you to go back to the northern frost immediately Fortress." As king, Lucifer issued his first order.

Due to a series of previous performances, no one present had any objection to his order.

"No problem. I'll remind the Ross people of the fears they faced." Gominiad nodded.

After getting the guarantee, Lucifer looked at Boudica, who belonged to the big sister.

"Words from the east..."

"Well, I have a question here, how should I put it, it's a bit hard to say..." Boudica said with a difficult expression.

"Speak. We're sitting here now to solve problems."

"My Eastern Legion has just had a big battle with Rome. Now it is facing the problem of repairing and replenishing troops, but there are three new legions in Rome, and the Sword Emperor is here. I can only procrastinate for time, But..." Boudica described the predicament she faced.

Unlike the north, the situation in the east is somewhat complicated. What's more, the previous king has been desperately killing the century-old enemy in the south, and at the same time, he has not repaired the internal affairs. As a result, the country is very bad in all aspects. The four of them supported the country with their own strength, and it was difficult to get assistance from the central government a few years ago.

Hearing the deep meaning in Boudica's words, Lucifer did not ask her to be held accountable, nor did she ask her to defend desperately. He just subconsciously made the worst plans and estimates.

"Is it possible for the east to fall? Before this, I was very curious, what happened to this country before? Not only the internal affairs of the country seem to be very bad, but also there seems to be a big problem in diplomacy. I won't say that France is an old enemy. Why is the relationship between the north and the east so bad?"

Lucifer completely didn't understand what was going on in this weird situation.

Since it is said that the French in the south are the old enemy, it is better to make peace with the north and the east first, and concentrate on killing the old enemy in the south. Now there is a little trouble, and the east and the north are stepping on it. No matter how you look at it, it is all because of the previous foreign strategy.

Lucifer looked at the four dukes seriously, Lungominiad calmly closed his eyes, a strong woman like her would actually close her eyes to avoid Lucifer's gaze. Lucifer felt that the problem should be caused by the former king.

He turned his gaze to Semiramis, but the beautiful duchess just rolled her long black hair with her fingers and smiled evasively.

The eyes moved again, this time the target was Boudica.

"This..." Boudica smiled awkwardly, she scratched her hair as if she didn't know what to say.

In the end, Giorgios took the initiative to answer this question.

"When the late king was alive, he had been fighting everywhere. Although he gained a lot of territory, it also made the surrounding countries hostile to Britain."

All right! the truth. Lucifer finally understood why these people were unwilling to speak.

This former king is really... powerful, I don't even know what to say. Even if Qin Shihuang swept away the six countries, he did not go to war with all countries at the same time. What's more, there are nine countries on this continent. Not surprisingly, other countries probably don't have a good impression of Britain. *

no.15 War doesn’t have to be a knife

Despite having a very headache, Lucifer still insisted on continuing the meeting. After all, I have already taken over the crown, and now is not the time to complain about the past, but to find a way to solve the current problems. However, some things still need to be explained in advance.

"Hostile? This is no longer hostility, but the rhythm of wanting to kill people without giving us a chance before we recover. I won't ask how much of that 'many land' is still preserved, but in the future, I think everyone It can be based on my new national policy.”

After Lucifer finished speaking, the four dukes also expressed that the problem was not serious.

"Naturally." Gominiad spoke first.

Then came Boudica.

"no problem."

"I will obey the king's decision." Giorgios also expressed his position at the same time.

The only one who didn't comment was Semiramis. She was looking at Lucifer with a gaze appreciating art, and spoke slowly after a while.

"I want to remind you, my lord, as you said, the current situation in Britain is very dangerous. If the immediate matter is not resolved, I am afraid there will be no future."

Lucifer didn't make any promises like big words, he understood that to deal with the Duchess in front of him, actions were always more useful than words.

"Duke, how much do you know about Holy Rome?" He asked directly.

"What do you want to say?" Semiramis subconsciously restrained his smile.

She instinctively thought that Lucifer wanted to use this as an excuse to hold her accountable, but that was just a misunderstanding. Lucifer has never had such an idea, now is the enemy, let alone she has no problem, even if she really has a problem, as long as it does not affect the current situation, Lucifer will pretend not to see it .

"Sorry! My statement may be a bit wrong. I apologize to you in advance, my lady. I mean, can your intelligence network contact Shinra. Especially the members of the Shinra elders."

Lucifer's words didn't fully explain, but Semiramis already somewhat understood what he meant. It's also her favorite way to do it.

"Hey, what do you want to do?"

There was no response, but the rhetorical question itself already explained her ability.

"Is it possible to say that it can affect it, even if it is only partially. Very good! Tell them, I am willing to talk to them, and use money equal to time to talk to them. Even if our two countries are really at war, they have to If there is no benefit at all, the military exploits will only belong to the generals and the governor. Tell them this. I believe those people will not be troubled by money." Lucifer seriously analyzed the current situation.

The Roman Senate has a certain influence in the country, as long as the conditions are good, it should not be difficult to use them.

"Stop sending troops? Don't expect too much from those people, ordinary small actions don't matter. But they can't make this decision at all, and it's meaningless to talk to them, especially if they still worry about the emperor's anger."

Semiramis immediately poured cold water on Lucifer.

"I'm not naive enough to rely on them to get things done. I mean, let them argue with others about the necessity of this war. It doesn't need to be completely stopped, just delay the time to send troops, and there is no need to anger the emperor at all. Two months, at least one month is the bottom line. As long as they can do it, we will pay them a reward." Lucifer explained his intention.

If those guys are directly asked to stop the sending of troops, considering the anger of the Roman emperor, they probably dare not do it. But if it's just a one-month delay, they can do it. After all, talking nonsense is what they do best.

As long as you talk nonsense, you can get money, which is not a betrayal of the motherland. Those patriarchs should be more than happy to help their wallets.

Semiramis's eyes lit up, and he felt that this method was not bad.

"It's not difficult to do. Where are you going to get the money? What I want to remind you is..."

"Imperial Palace. I took a look at the decoration of the imperial palace before. If there is no accident, the royal family should still have a lot of private money. I am the king now, and the money belongs to me. It is not difficult to take out part of it."

"The money problem has been solved, but there is one more problem. There are only two months. What happens after two months?"

"This is exactly what I want to say now. Britain seems very dangerous in front of me, but the key source is not the north, nor the east, but the south. As long as you quickly defeat the French in the south and force them to sign a truce, All problems are not problems." Lucifer stood up, pressed his hands on the table, and looked at the four Grand Dukes sitting there.

In the chaotic situation, Lucifer quickly found the crux of the problem. Not north, not east, but south. The north and the east are at most just taking advantage of the fire, and will retreat if they don't see the result, but the south is different, they will not retreat until they are pressed hard on the ground and rubbed. *

no.16 France will never surrender...unless

What we are facing now is a third-line invasion, but as long as we quickly defeat the most critical south, the problems in the east and north will naturally be resolved.

"Will France be defeated quickly... If it can be done, it will definitely make people re-evaluate Britain's current strength." At this time, Giorgios thought seriously.

"After France is settled, even if Rome attacks, our main force in the south will be able to return. They will retreat if they don't take advantage." Boudica also mentioned the possibility of follow-up.

As long as it doesn't immediately open fire with the main force in the east, there is room for maneuver.

"The main force in the north..." Gominiad was also a little moved at this time.

But Lucifer immediately vetoed the thought in her mind.

"The main force in the north cannot be moved, Gominiad, the safety of the north is in your hands."

"Please rest assured, Wang."

Having said that, the next foreign policy has been basically clear.

"Guys, we need to fight hard now. Only a good win in the south can make others temporarily put away their small thoughts about Britain. It can also win the breathing time for the next few years."

After listening to Lucifer's words, the confidence in the hearts of the Grand Dukes in front of them also increased a lot. At least there is a solution to the problem.

"These are the external policies, and what I'm going to talk about next is the internal issues." Lucifer said while their confidence was still taking the lead.

"Inside?" Boudica was a little puzzled.

"I am a new king, and I am not even of the blood of the Wang family. The problems caused by this can be seen before. I will personally conquer the next battle in the south. Whether there will be chaos in this royal city will affect the entire Battle situation."

"It's really thoughtful, Wang." Semiramis smiled, but in fact, she originally wanted to talk about this problem, and even had a solution. But now it seems unnecessary.

"Next, I appoint Semiramis as Prime Minister of Britain. During my absence, you will be fully responsible for the affairs of the royal city."

If there were no such messy things around, Lucifer should have stabilized the domestic situation for a long time to come, but now he doesn't have that time. Domestic problems can only be temporarily handed over to others.

At present, there are only four people in front of me who can be trusted, but the other three have tasks, and they are in terms of power. Semiramis is also the most suitable candidate among the four.

"Another unexpected decision." Semiramis was stunned for a moment, then smiled very happily.

This decision was very unexpected, because she originally wanted to recommend herself to stay to deal with Wang Cheng's funeral. She thought of something in Lucifer's decision.

Soon, the meeting ended, and the other three had already left to prepare their own affairs. Lucifer left Semiramis alone. Lucifer is still thinking about how to speak, after all, this kind of solitude does not seem like a business, and misunderstanding will cause unnecessary trouble.

It was Semiramis who was very generous and spoke first.

"Okay, everyone else has left. Your Majesty, if you have anything to say, can you tell me now?"

"Duke!"

Lucifer was about to say something, but was immediately corrected by Semiramis.

"Just call me Mira."

"Mira?"

"Yes! This is a nickname that only belongs to you, His Majesty the King!"

At this moment, the coquettishness displayed by Semiramis made Lucifer feel his heart flutter, but immediately, he temporarily shook off this feeling.

Business, right business! Business matters!

"Mira, I want the military habits, personalities, and even previous battle data of important generals in southern France. Can it be done?"

This was also the reason why Lucifer left her alone. Compared with the overly decent approach of the other three, only she can accept this kind of thing, and can even do it.

"Small idea. Phil is so mysterious, I thought you wanted their legion layout?" Mira changed Lucifer's name to Phil without authorization.

Although for a king, this might be regarded as disrespectful, but Lucifer didn't care much. What he cared more about was what she said later.

"You can also get this kind of thing?" Lucifer looked at Mira in surprise.

"Of course... no. What are you thinking, Your Majesty Phil! If I can get this kind of confidential document, at least Britain will not be what it is now."

The seemingly joking words, but Lucifer saw a gloomy look in her eyes. The four grand dukes love this country very much. Because of this, when the country is facing collapse, they will feel extremely guilty.

They subconsciously wonder if they haven't done a good job, and they can only think so. but……

"As a subject, you have fulfilled your due responsibilities. This is the way of loyalty, and there is no need to blame yourself. The prosperity of a kingdom may require the efforts of thousands of people, but the decline of a kingdom often requires only one person .” Lucifer’s words were not consolation.

Semiramis looked at Lucifer seriously, and only smiled in relief after looking at him for a long time.

"Then, for the kingdom not to continue to decline, Your Majesty Phil, work hard! We are all looking forward to a new Britain."

"I will show you hope."

Under the moon, the two walked in different directions with a smile. *

no.17 The troubles of the knight girl (asking for tickets, asking for flowers)

Strolling in the corridor, he came to the temporary residence prepared for himself in this manor. Not long before the door, Lucifer found the figure of a certain knight princess who had been waiting there for a long time. She didn't seem to notice her arrival, and the hesitation on her face was visible to the naked eye.

"Are you unable to sleep because of the expedition tomorrow, Leah?" Lucifer came to her side and asked with concern.

Arturia lost her composure because of her surprise.

"Lucifer, ah, no, it's Your Majesty!" She originally wanted to call Lucifer by his original name, but she immediately changed her name when she thought of something.

They are master and slave, but Lucifer's identity has changed.

"Leah, you are my exclusive knight now, so you don't need to be so polite. Just call me 'MASTER'." Looking at the knight girl in front of him, Lucifer gave her a certain title directly out of some evil intention. .

Although judging from the current situation, there will probably not be such "world famous paintings" as "You are my MASTER". But for now, this is enough, and we can't ask for too much.

"Master...Master. You were discussing with the four grand dukes what happened in Britain just now. Is the situation serious?"

"It's nothing. The situation is bad, but it's not the worst. We have a solution, and now we just need to follow the plan step by step. Don't worry, I will bring new life to this country. This is our mission." between the agreement."

The next most important thing is to defeat the three legions of France, fortunately Lucifer still has some experience on this point.

Recalling the previous world, I have fought against the undead team, and there is a certain Pope who eats God. Even because of the timeline, he directly participated in Lothric's war against the Unknown King.

Compared with the previous opponents, the enemy in front of him was nothing. Their only advantage may be numbers.

"Well, I believe Lu...Master."
